    Endorsing NY license to another state

    A B replied to A B's topic in Registration

    Of course! What state are you going through? If you can get licensed through NY and then endorse to a compact state you should be OK. Can I ask why you chose to study in NZ? Feel free to private message if you need, I'm happy to exchange details for...

    Endorsing NY license to another state

    A B replied to A B's topic in Registration

    No worries, Elsa - ask away. I'm not sure what requirements the NY BON has but I know many AU/NZ RN's have managed to obtain registration through them. I started my application with CGFNS and dropped the papers that needed to be filled out at my scho...

    Endorsing NY license to another state

    A B replied to A B's topic in Registration

    Hey Elsa, I graduated mid 2020 from MIT in Auckland. I'm not sure how easy it is to endorse to other states, for some you need a visa screen and others require a CES evaluation. I'm stuck on that part myself and am worried I won't actually be able to...

    Australian nurse wanting to work in America

    A B replied to Aussienurse123's topic in Immigration

    Can I ask how you endorsed? Did you need to complete a visa screen to do so? I'm worried CGFNS will say my nursing hours are insufficient once they review my visa screen. Am already licensed in New York but have a job lined up in Maryland (which I'll...

    CGFNS CES re-evaluation

    A B replied to Skeim's topic in Registration

    Thanks, I have since found out that MD does require a CES report for international nurses. However, I have asked my agency if I can endorse to another compact state (such as Texas) which does not require the CES, in order to be eligible to work in MD...

    Endorsing NY license to another state

    A B posted a topic in Registration

    Hello! I've been offered a job in Maryland, however, I'm a little worried about endorsing my license as I was educated in New Zealand and am aware that my education hours will may not be adequate for the BON. Has anyone successfully endorsed to ...

    CGFNS CES re-evaluation

    A B replied to Skeim's topic in Registration

    Haven't done this but think I might need to as I have a NY license trying to apply to MD. Please let me know of any updates you have, I'm worried my CES report will be deficient - I didn't realise I had to do a whole other CES report just to endorse!...

    Australian nurse wanting to work in America

    A B replied to Aussienurse123's topic in Immigration

    Hey, I would apply to New York state because you can always endorse your license. It will be even more of a headache to receive a deficiency notice and then have to go back and submit a CVS for New York. The processing times for New York can take any...

    Australian Nurse to USA

    A B replied to jeff214's topic in Immigration

    Hey Jeff, sorry I know this is an old post but I have a question re the VisaScreen. I also obtained my eligibility via CVS for New York state. Did you have to convert the CVS into a CES for Tennessee in order to complete the VisaScreen? (hope that ma...

    NCLEX/NZ nurse wanting to work in USA

    A B replied to Philippa Limbrick's topic in International

    No worries! Thank goodness my CGFNS application went pretty smoothly - check my recent comments for a copy of my timeline. They didn't have any issues with the documentation provided - I went to school at MIT so if you also went there, clearly they k...

    NCLEX/NZ nurse wanting to work in USA

    A B replied to Philippa Limbrick's topic in International

    You will have to go to Australia. I am also from New Zealand and sat my exam in Melbourne. Cost me $1400 (ouch) because I went middle of December but it was 1000 percent worth it!

    A B replied to A B's topic in Immigration

    hey Sam! No worries - call CGFNS and they'll convert your application to CVS. You don't need your school to resend the docs, I had all my docs sent in for CES as well but CGFNS managed to convert my application from CES to CVS before it was sent...

    New Zealand RN just received NCLEX eligibility from NYSED!!

    A B replied to A B's topic in Immigration

    Hey Sam, I’m confused - have you completed CVS with CGFNS? If so, send all your docs in and give them 3-4 months to process everything. At the same time, apply for your license on NYSED website so that when CGFNS sends your CVS report, everythin...
